A Charm Without a Chain

He's a high school English and Theater teacher who always secretly wanted to be a cop. So when Monty Farraday is summoned, for reasons unknown, to meet with principal Reginald Brandenburg prior to the start of the school year during the unpredictable summer of 1974, and suddenly finds himself in the middle of the biggest murder mystery to ever hit the town of Lake Covington, Colorado, he wants to solve it.



It's bad enough that Monty and his daughter Jessica are the ones to find the principal's dead body, but the next thing they hear is that a beloved teacher, Naomi Sutherland, was done in a day earlier as well. Why were two school staff members killed within two days? Who could possibly be behind this? And what is the significance of the silver rose charm that Jessica found near the murder scene?



Figuring out the solution to the two murders may initially seem impossible, but look out, Lake Covington, because Monty's on the case!
